Notes to editors
Kistos plc was established to acquire and manage companies in the energy sector engaging in the energy transition trend. The Company has acquired Tulip Oil Netherlands B.V., which has a portfolio of assets, including profitable, highly cash generative natural gas production, plus appraisal and exploration opportunities. The Company has 19.5 MMboe of 2P reserves and an additional 102.1 MMboe of contingent resources. On 31 st January 2022, Kistos announced that it had conditionally agreed to acquire a 20% interest in the Greater Laggan Area from TotalEnergies. On completion, this transaction is expected to increase Group production to ~12,000 boe/d and add 2P reserves of 6 MMboe.
Kistos is a low carbon producer. The Q10-A gas field in the Dutch North Sea (60% operated working interest) has recorded a Scope 1 carbon emissions intensity of 13g CO 2 e/boe since inception. This compares to an industry average of 22kg CO 2 /boe for gas extracted from the UK continental shelf. The Q10-A normally unmanned installation is located approximately 20 km from the Dutch shore. It is powered sustainably via wind and solar power and is remotely operated, limiting offshore visits, which are conducted by boat.
